Liberation War Affairs Minister Ahmed Azam Khan informed the National Parliament on Wednesday, April 15, 2026, that Bangladesh currently has 198,037 officially recognized freedom fighters, according to the ministry’s consolidated list. He made the disclosure while responding to a question from ruling party MP A.M. Mahbub Uddin Khokon during a session chaired by Speaker Hafiz Uddin Ahmed. The minister also stated that the government is not presently considering any increase in the honorarium for the freedom fighters.
In response to separate questions, the minister explained that allegations against gazetted freedom fighters are investigated by a subcommittee of the National Freedom Fighters Council (JAMUKA). Since August 2024, the council has received 842 complaints, resulting in the cancellation of 481 gazettes or related documents. Since its inception, JAMUKA has recommended the cancellation of 6,465 gazettes through 103 meetings.
The session also featured statements from the agriculture and land ministers on fertilizer pricing oversight and anti-corruption measures in land offices, highlighting ongoing government monitoring and digital reforms.
